I did 3 runs back to back today with the cheap cheap vorza, finally found a problem. The MM2 in it, or ELC 6s, was always a little coggy for my liking when driving. Now, today I got to get it hotter than usual because I ran so many packs through it. The cogs slowly got worse until, towards the beginning of pack 3, the car would NOT move from a dig under its own power. It would cog so bad, it’d even cog under full throttle. Sometimes the jitters even made it back up a good 4 inches even though I’m giving it forward throttle. It WILL NOT find it’s direction no matter how long you hit the gas, I even kept it floored for 3 seconds but began to feel bad for the ESC. If you kick it off by foot it’s mint, and as long as it never completely stops moving, it runs great! But as soon as you come to a stop it’s all over. It doesn’t really bother me because I don’t really stop the car during runs anyway, I keep it moving and jumping. Once it cooled below 150 degrees it was able to move from a start under its own power. I’m worried about the long term effects on the ESC from this behavior. I need some experts for this one...
